    Hello everyone!

    My name is Fabio, an italian guy of 24 years of age. I lived in Australia in the last year, now I'm back to Milan and I want to keep talking in English because I would like to practice and improving it, if I don't do it I know that I will forget soon how to speak in English :(

    So I'm looking for new friends to spend some time, having a beer, a chat, or whatever we wanna do!

    Cheers,
    Fabio

    Hi again!

    What I have observed here is that online application is not as fast. It usually takes 1-2 weeks before someone gets back to you. Not all of course...but most of them do.

    @Mosskito: try googling English-speaking jobs or English language jobs. Job ads are just a click away. But I've read somewhere that Italians are also into networking. Employers prefer referrals than walk-ins. Not sure if true. Good luck in your jobhunting. :)

    Thanks,

    Cherry

    Hi Fabio! Ciao tutti! I've tried attending a social group in Milan and the people are great. If you have an account with Facebook, you can search for AperoNet. They will send invites to members who join their group and everyone will meet up once in a while. People usually speak in English but are from different countries.

    Hi everybody! In this site, some time ago, I saw a link indicating pubs, partys, etc... (in Milan) for people who wants to spend time with foreigner friends speaking other languages. Can anyone help me to find it once again?
    Anyway I'm Davide and I'm 24. Nice to meet you all and I'm sorry for my english, is pretty poor i know.

    Goodnight!!!
